Meet the Doctors

Dr. Sandy Chapnick is a graduate of the University of Massachusetts in Amherst and Life Chiropractic College, graduating Cum Laude in 1986. He began as an associate at Billerica Chiropractic Office immediately upon graduation. He and Dr. Honi Kawut, purchased Billerica Chiropractic Office on Jan. 1, 1990. Together they built one of the largest and most successful chiropractic offices in the Greater Lowell area. In 1995, Dr. Chapnick went “back to school” to earn an additional degree as a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician. He has also become one of the few experts in extremity adjusting in the area. Yes, that means expert care for TMJ, Plantar Fasciitis, other foot, ankle and knee problems along with shoulder, elbow and wrist/hand problems including Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Dr. Chapnick is an avid lecturer having lectured to civic groups, churches, and schools and at Yale Medical School. He is the host of a television show on Billerica Access T.V. since 1998 entitled You and Your Health (check the Billerica Minuteman for days and times).

Being a chiropractor was a goal of his since he was a 14-year-old boy after receiving his first adjustment for an acute case of torticollis (stiff neck). He knew at the time that chiropractic was great for neck and back pain but it was during chiropractic school and throughout his career that he began to understand the remarkable healing ability of the human body when it is free from nerve interference caused by subluxations. To this day, he continues to be amazed on a daily basis the miracles that chiropractic produces. After 32 years in practice there is absolutely nothing else he would rather do than be a chiropractor so that he can help his patients achieve greater levels of health than they have known before.

When not in the office, Dr. Chapnick loves spending time with his daughter Arielle and his son David whenever possible and spending time with friends He also exercises regularly, ran his first 1/2 marathon just prior to his 49th birthday, and is an bowler. Having been born in the Bronx, N.Y. he still roots for his beloved N.Y. Yankees.

Dr. Honi Kawut received her BA degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1982. Her major was a new, revolutionary (at that time) interdepartmental degree called “The Biological Basis of Behavior” which merged the studies of psychology, neurology, biology and anthropology. This was the early beginnings of what has become known as the "Mind, Body Connection" and further fueled her interest in how health is related to our physical, psychological and emotional well-being. She received her Doctor of Chiropractic degree from New York Chiropractic College in 1985 and has been in active practice ever since.

Through chiropractic, Dr. Kawut has helped people to regain and maintain their health without the use of drugs or surgery. She takes care of spines of all ages and enjoys helping people to be their best and live their best. In recent years, she has attended a variety of post graduate forums focusing on the care of pregnant women, babies and children. She is certified in the Webster Technique and is dedicated to helping women have more comfortable and healthier pregnancies and deliveries. Her dedicated mission is to give children an early healthy step up with a spinal check.

Dr. Kawut is a proud mother of two grown children ages 26 and 21. Her children have been adjusted since birth and always seek out chiropractic care even when they are away from home. Staying healthy with chiropractic care is for everyone!
